Earlier in the year I was convinced that I had thyroid, colon, breast and oral C all at the same time. That would be almost impossible to have all of those at once but try telling a "hypochondriac" that

When my HA is raging, I imagine that my body is riddled with every type of cancer known to mankind...and, of course, being the good hypochondriac that I am, I will be the one to get the new, never before seen cancer!

Ugh its awful. Its like my HA is dead set on me worrying about something so it's giving me many options and whatever fits best that day.Potternur, I've had that as well. That I have a rare cancer or disease and I'll be the first one to get it because I can't possible be not sick -.-

Hey Marie, I used to be a bad hypo myself but have gotten it under control with some lifestyle changes/beliefs. At my worst I found much reassurance with a site called justanswer, they have a monthly service that goes for 40$ a month and allows to to ask all the health questions to qualified surgeons and doctors. It works great because while yes you can never seem to be convinced nothing is wrong being constantly told by doctors you have no problems can affirm you have nothing wrong with you.

Yes. but usually I get scared a cancer I was already worrying about has spread. Like, if I'm worried I have bone cancer, and then later on get a head ache, i get scared that my bone cancer has spread to my brain.
